Try this:
[y,Fs] = audioread(filename);
audiowrite('outputfile.WAV',y,Fs);
File formats of .avi and .MOV are not mentioned among the accepted input file formats of audioread's documentation ( https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/audioread.html#btiabil-1-dataType ), but I tried them in R2020 and they work with this code.

Though my memory is saying that .mp4 was not supported by audioread() back in R2013a.
This does not work in r2018a:
>> [input_file, Fs] = audioread('2020-11-28 13-44-42.mp4','native');
Error using audioread (line 88)
The file type is not supported
R2018a documents .mp4 support; https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2018a/matlab/ref/audioread.html -- though you might need to install a codec package .
